A demonstration taken out by the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) to Raj Bhavan here in protest against the Centre’s purported political witch-hunt against senior Congress leaders, including All India Congress Committee president Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, MP, turned violent after some activists attempted to scale barricades and storm the premises on Thursday.
Two police personnel, including a woman, sustained injuries after protesters hurled stones at them. Three Congress activists were arrested in this connection.
All hell broke loose shortly after senior KPCC leaders addressed party workers and left the makeshift stage erected on a lorry near Raj Bhavan.
